4 Album-Inspired Outfits To Rock This Spring

We're not style chameleons, per se, but we do like to change things up a bit to fit our mood. And, nothing says "spring" like a good soundtrack. So, we've turned to some of our most-loved recording artists for a little fashion inspiration (read: swagger). From the (now obligatory) Jay-Z BK Nets cap to transplant Mr. Bowie's wild metallics, our thank-god-its-not-snowing ensembles and happy-weather albums go together like, well, Elvis and a white jumpsuit. Just, please, leave the singing to the professionals.

Jay-ZClassic, current, constant. Jay-Z is always on our playlist, but we've been replaying "I've Made It," "Lost One," and "Beach Chair," lately, and it's getting us psyched to wear our BK fitted hats when they'll actually be shading sun. Fans or not, they're definitely a great accessory to top off a look.

Yeah Yeah YeahsYes, it was a few summers ago now that we could not stop listening to "Gold Lion." Like, seriously, ever. And we're reviving the raw, rock vibe of this (and every other) Yeah Yeah Yeahs song this spring in anticipation of the band's latest release, set to drop April 16. We pulled inspiration from the album cover (which we love) to create a feminine-edgy outfit to wear on any big (and badass) night out. After all, if you're anything like Karen O, which, uh, you are, you're a "Warrior," too.

Solange KnowlesWhether it's fashion or music related, Solange is always having a moment. We dig her bold, mix-and-matched prints that still stay sophisticated as well as the colors and vibe of this poppy album cover from one of her older releases. "I Decided" happens to be as of-the-moment as "Losing You" and so is this play suit and blazer combo.

David BowieSound? Vision? Check and check. Mr. B may be a New Yorker by way of the Atlantic but we still feel like he's a kindred spirit. And, lucky for us, he's coming out with a new album this spring. Keep it exciting enough for a Labyrinth party with some metallics, some out-there graphics, and versatile shoes.
